Sanctuary on the North Shore of Lake Superior

This VRBO is truly a Sanctuary. It sits perched on a hill among the trees. Jack rabbits played and grazed in the yard. The view is amazing! The town folk are friendly and helpful. We found everything as listed. No matter which direction you drive there is a restaurant to be found. No matter the distance to drive to and from a distination for the day, the drive itself is beautiful.

Driving up to this property, literally, took my breath away. It's up on a hill, so all you see is water. There is a cool outlook spot and I loved watching the fog roll over the little islands down below. I truly felt secluded on a large piece of land. The location was perfect, so the drives north or south, for exploring, didn't feel super long. Black sand beach (across the street) was our favorite. The nearby food market was convenient. It wasn't perfect, but it was still a place that I would be happy to rent again and recommend. It was very clean, well organized, and stocked with entertainment. There was a bunch of extra supplies, which was nice, especially if your stay is long. A washer and dryer were on site, but it wasn't listed in the amenities. The photos of the listing were a bit confusing, considering photos of the extra apartment on the property were included. The book of information could benefit with some clarification/updating. The weather was mild, but I did find need for the AC in the evening. Only one of the three bedroom units was working correctly. Communication with the owner was quick and excellent and I was able to troubleshoot enough to get by for the rest of our stay. Overall, my family and I were very pleased.

Fantastic as always! Will be back!

The views of Lake Superior are amazing - as you drive up to the property, when you are inside the property.

We absolutely loved our stay at the A-Frame! The views were amazing, the location was great, and the house had everything we could need). 10/10 recommend.

Everything was well explained easy to use. New well maintained property.

Great location! Cozy cabin with a spectacular view!

This place is top notch! The house was extremely clean with all of the amenities we needed. And of course, amazing views of Lake Superior. It was great to drink our morning coffee and track the cargo ships sailing by. Ideally situated to take a day trip down to Duluth or further north to the many sites along the way. Would definitely request this location in the future.

This cabin was cozy and offered spectacular views. In the heart of the North Shore, everything was easy to get to.

Amazing! We will definitely be back!

Clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend to others.Only complaint is the checkout requirement to empty the dishwasher. It is unreasonable to expect us to sit around waiting 2-3 hours for breakfast dishes to be cleaned in dishwasher. Should just require dsihes to be loaded and dish washer started.

Always a wonderful stay. Great base to explore the North Shore. Comfortable beds and we also appreciated the two places to eat in the home.

The A-frame is located in the most perfect spot with amazing breathtaking views of Lake Superior. Honestly, the pictures do not even do it justice, the wow factor as you drive into the driveway. Everything is close that you could possibly need, great location for exploring further north as well.The cabin is beautiful, well kept and great spaces to capture the views while indoors as well.I highly recommend to take Dave’s advice and wake up early enough to see the sunrise, absolutely stunning.

Beautiful view overlooking the Lake. The house had everything we needed. Kitchen was very well stocked. The communication with the owner was very easy.

The cabin was super cozy! It had every amenity you could ask for in a cabin on the North Shore: spacious and private property, great view of Superior (unless you have fog like we did haha), within close distance of multiple state parks and restaurants, multiple bonfire pits, cozy couches for movie nights, etc. I could go on and on! The only drawback we had was due to mother nature - we had fog and rainy weather all the days we were there. Luckily for us, the cabin itself was all we needed. Thanks again for letting us use your wonderful cabin, Dave - we hope to be back!

Loved the view. Awesome access to ATV trails and area scenic spots.

Our second stay at the Sanctuary! Dave is a great guy, replies promptly to any issues that might come up. The A-frame is beautiful. Thanks again

The property is fantastic and in a great, central location on the North Shore. The house is well maintained and appointed, with lots of thoughtful touches to give guests a great stay.

This property is absolutely beautiful. It's secluded, peaceful, beautiful, rummy and very well maintained. The house was very cean. My family loves coming to the Silver Bay Area. It's a great little town. Everyone has ben friendly. We love the local grocery store Zups. All of the beaches and waterfalls are stunningly beautiful. Highly recommend this property

Peaceful perch. Comfortably met all our needs, including being well-appointed for our preference to make and eat breakfast and dinner “in.” Great views, easy to get to and range around for day trips, and immediate and clear communication from the owner. We had a great week. Thanks so much!

Great house and property. Loved the upper deck! Great place for morning coffee.

Great views, nice space inside. We really enjoyed our stay!

Our stay was wonderful! The house was amazing and in an absolutely beautiful location, overlooking Lake Superior. We would be very happy to stay there again!

Enjoyed the VRBO and the week

Reconnecting with family, hiking and exploring Lake Superior’s North Shore.

Loved the house. Just secluded enough while still being a short drive to a lot of fun outdoor stuff and to Silver Bay. Perfect spot along the north shore to access all the beautiful state parks and spots on Lake Superior. House was very clean, had all the modern amenities you could want. Would definitely stay again.

Property was great and very clean. Location was excellent and close to many attractions in the area.

Beautiful property and well maintained. Loved the views from the house.

Excellent location and absolutely awesome spot with amazing views. Already booked a return trip for fall!

Amazing property! We had a wonderful stay!

The property was more than we could’ve expected. It was secluded, calm, and completely perfect for our trip. It is in a central location for all types of adventures.

We were on location for an upcoming film. Hard to beat the beauty of Superior. We were so busy we didn’t have much relaxation time but the A-frame was a perfect place to be after a long day on the set.

The cabin itself is beautiful. Some suggestions: Would have liked to have known about the availability of the Keurig and washer/ dryer. Would suggest the king mattress upstairs be flipped and rotated. Suggest the dishes, pots and pans and glassware be checked by caretaker. All needed to be rewashed before they could be used. The view from the property is fantastic. The cabin is beautifully furnished and very comfortable. Really appreciated the access to firewood and kindling. We had a very relaxing time. Would absolutely recommend this property to anyone.

A return visit to the A Frame for us after a few years and it's even more special than we remember. A great property, with a stunning overview, on a spectacular stretch of the north shore. Moonlight and dawn views of the sky and lake are particularly wonderful from this spot. The property is immaculately maintained and rental process easy.

Our family was looking for a place to enjoy the North Shore and celebrate a birthday. We were all together for the weekend and enjoyed the easy access to so many outdoor adventures AND the quiet times spent around the home. From the deck to yard games to bonfires, it really was a wonderful retreat. Dave always responded promptly to my questions leading up to the weekend.

Great place. Quiet. Cozy but roomy. Would love to stay again.

Very clean. Great communication with Dave. Loved the knotty pine interior.

My daughter and I visited the North Shore for the first time, and we absolutely loved our A-Frame! It was so beautiful, and we couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful setting. The beds were so comfortable and we had everything we needed inside and outside. Would highly recommend.

Stayed for 3 nights on a trip with friends to ride our SxS. Amazing views! Easy access at Atv trails. Very clean and spacious. Exceeded our expectations across the board. Would highly recommend!

Charming house, private location, well thought out amenities, close to lots of outdoor activities. Loved it!

Sanctuary on the North Shore was more than we expected. It's hard to describe, you just have to book it and go there! It was hard to leave. Our fav was seeing the recent harvest moon shimmering on the lake from birds eye view. It was mesmerizing!

The best place we have stayed at on the north shore. Incredible view with lots to do on the property like relaxing in the hammock,playing horseshoes, having fires in the two fire pits, sitting out on the point etc. Dave was great when we had a little problem with one of the TV he responded very quick to our issue and walked us through it. A great week we didn't want to leave to go home.
